Hen. John R. Tucker.

The report of the proceedings of the
Augusta Bar held yesterday to give ex-
preston to their choice for the vacant
iudgeship on the bench of the Supreme
Court will be found in another column
Virginia, through her representatives in
the Legislature, has already placed her dis
tinguished son before the President in con-
nection with that position, and the santi-
ments of all her people may be said to be
thus reflected. The press in every part OF
the Commonwealth single out MIR. Tucker
with unanimity for the position, and in
other States the same popular medium oil
expressing sentiment, speaks of him as
peculiarly fitted for that high station.
Along with these demonstrations con-
corning the appointment to be made by the
President there is deep and sincere ex-
preston of sentiment and regard for Mr..
Tucker voiced by the Augusta bar. 1t
should have great weight in the selection,
because those who have spoken know that
the country would receive large benefit in
the abilities and culture that would be ad-
ded to the highest tribunal Of the land.
AS we stated last week, should the Presi-
dent make this appointment he would put
"the right man in the right place." for the
Bench of the Supreme Court is the proper
place for Tucker, whose life-training and
talents and learning and pure character ad
n
character for honesty and his profound
knowledge of constitutional law make him
the right man for that place.

Virginia Episcopal Council.

The annual session of the Council of the
Protestant Episcopal Church in Alexandria
was closed last Saturday night with ser
mon by the Rev. DR.. T. G. Dashiell and
the usual address by Bishop Randolph. On
Saturday, after sermon by the Rev. W.
T. Roberts, the report of the committee on
new parishes was read by the Rev. DR.. O..
A. Kinsolving, which recommended the
reception as new congregations of the
church at Little Georgetown, Fauquier
county, and st. Peters Church, Norfolk
county, and defining the boundaries of
Greenwood parish, Albemarle county
Rev. o. S. Barten read the report of the
committee on Sunday schools, which showed
the number of children to be 1927 whites,
2, 149 colored, and 1876 Indians teachers,
1,043, and contributions, $4,919.
Judge Hugh W. Shefey read the report
of the committee on finances. The amount
of available funds is $10,SS9 43, and the
debt 81, 421.49. The belief was expressed
that the Indebtedness would be very much
reduced during the year, and recommen-
dation was made that an endowment fund
be established.

Tuesday of last week was the semi GEN.
tennial or fiftieth anniversary of the estab-
lishment of the Baltimore Sun. We ac-
knowledge the receipt of its Semicenten-
NAL Souvenir containing representations of
its magnificent buildings in Baltimore and
Washington, and mini6ed copies of the
Baltimore Sun of May 18th, 1887, when it
was established, and Of May 18th, 1887,
the date of its fftieth anniversary. The
career of the Sun has been remarkable
one. It is one of the best papers published,
being conducted with marked enterprise
and ability, and being dignifed, clean,
conservative, and reliable. 1t is superior
as a medium of news, presenting in each
issue the livery age and body of the times"
We hope the Sun will never be eclipsed,
but that it will continue, even with in
creased effulgence, if possible, to shed its
benefcent rays of intelligence and en-
lightenment for the benefit of coming gene
ratioDs.

A MICHIGAN VILLAGE DEsTRoYED.-On
Friday last, the village of Lake Linden,
Keweenah county, Michigan was destroyed
by fire. Loss $2,000,OO0. Over two hun
bred buildings were burned. The only
business buildings left are one saloon and
one small store. The insurance aggregates
S735,00O, in English and eastern companies
principally. During the fire a heavy gale
prevailed. The flames leaped from block
to block, destroying brick and stone struc-
lures as readily as wooden buildings.
This is the place to which Mr.. Harry
Bolen went from here about the 1st of last
October to engage in the jewelry business.
We suppose we may now look for his re-
turn to Staunton.

MIR Thomas Blynp, of the Times, was in
advance of his friends and crossed the
bridge leading to the station just in time to
see that they were endangered by the

aud they started to run across the bridge,
and would doubtless have succeeded but
that Mr.. Isaacs stumbled and Mr.. Shep-
herd fell over him. Before they could rise
the train was upon them. They were in
stantly killed, and their bodies, carried
around by the pilot truck of the locomotive,
